If any time of the year could be officially dubbed "lip season," there's no question it'd be Fall. From dark purples and wine-colored reds to burnt caramels and spicy shades of orange, Autumn's stunning spectrum of colors are too good to just merely look at. We want to wear them, too! With so many shades to explore, it's the perfect opportunity to put your go-to lip products on hiatus and discover new favorites.

As any beauty girl knows, new lip products mean new selfies. And with all those cute new selfies, you need an excuse to share them. That's where Sephora comes in.

Rather than letting those photos sit in your camera roll forever (guilty), you can share them in the retailer's online Community — and get rewarded for it big time. Yes, you read that right: Sephora's online Community is currently hosting its #FallLipSweepstakes, during which three lucky beauty lovers will be randomly chosen to win unreal prize packs worth over $500!

Entering the sweepstakes is already a no-brainer, but to make it even easier, we rounded up five Fall-ready lip products that are perfect to rock in your photos. Ahead, we're sharing need-to-know details about the sweepstakes, including a glimpse of the prizes.

If your favorite berry-toned lipstick crossed over to the dark side, it'd look like this midnight raspberry ($55) lipstick. The creamy matte finish and luxe packaging make it a total must have in your Fall beauty rotation.

Nope, that's not a liquid eyeliner; it's the newest (and undeniably most daring) shade in Fenty Beauty's lineup of Stunna lip paints ($24). Though black can be an intimidating color, you'd be surprised at how versatile it really is. Think of it like your favorite black leather jacket or go-to booties — but for your lips.

The only thing we love more than an affordable beauty product? One that actually works. For a Fall-friendly iteration of Sephora's intensely pigmented #Lipstories lipsticks, pick up this rich chocolate brown ($8) shade.

From now until Spring, consider this your new everyday shade. 3D-glow pigments are infused into this berry rose lipstick ($34) to make lips look wider and fuller. The gorgeous color is infused with the perfect autumnal balance of red and rust to make a head-turning statement wherever you go.

Don't let cooler temps dull your glow! To help your lips stay shining amidst cloudy skies and beneath layers of outerwear, add an innovative, luminescent lipgloss ($25) to your arsenal. While it may appear blue-lilac in the tube, the unique formula is actually designed to react to the chemistry of your lips, leaving behind a perfect rosy color that's totally unique to you.
